This provides assurance of a stable investment.

Can you please provide me with one.

ALL great advice and information provided above!

For more info, here is a link to the Hilltop Land Use Plan provided by the City of Columbus. 

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

I have a property that has an giant 80' tall silver maple in the backyard right near the deck and porch of the house, the tree overhangs the deck and part of the porch and provide a lot of shade for the backyard.

Thank you for the reply and providing your insight here.Carlos Aloha Carlos, This is a question that a lot of investors (in my opinion) get wrong.

Despite repeated requests, the agent has not provided certain essential documents or receipts, such as proof that the home was exterminated by the seller.

Then provide them with a preferred vendor list, set up electronic locks and make the landlording a little more automated.

My opinion for those that live in a high cost of living market is to continue living / renting in that market and invest in a different market that is affordable and provides both cash-flow and appreciation potential.The reason to stay in the HCOL market is because you will be paid(hopefully) a nice large salary.You can take this salary to then 'easily' invest in other markets.NYC is tenant friendly which can be a con for investors.Furthermore, NYC has appreciated historically.
